The Mechanical Strength Of A Biphasic Polycaprolactone Bone Scaffold For Medial Open Wedge High Tibia Osteotomy Implantation
International Journal of Applield Biomedical Engineering
2022
Volume 15, Number 1, Pages 10-19
Mechanical strength is a requirement of the bone scaffold for osteoarthritis treatment by the medial open wedge high tibia osteotomy (MOWHTO). The mechanical compression of the scaffold which depends on material concentration and structure must be concerned in MOWHTO substitution due to help to prevent the delayed bone healing process from scaffold collapse. This study was divided into two sections: (i) the influence of varying concentrations between DBM-HA mixed PCL scaffold (20/80, 30/70, and 40/60 % wt./wt. DBM-HA/PCL) on compressive strength, and (ii) the compressive strength of the 0°-90° orientations DBM-HA/PCL scaffold (20/80% wt./wt.) constructed with 300-500 μm pore dimension…
